Cannot find -lncursesw when installing #12

It seems oxidoc depends on libncurses for installation but in README.me it is not mentioned. I installed libncurses by sudo apt-get install libncursesw5-dev.

Maybe we can update README.md to reflect this.

If i'm right, lmk if you need PR.

PS: I'm coming from Go world which has pretty helpful go doc command. These days trying rust, hence stumbled upon this. Thanks for the great work!

Thanks for the feedback. I used OSX for the Unix testing so this information would be helpful. Feel free to add the information to the README.

I've send a pull request to fix this.

Just a heads up. The README shows "libncursesw6-dev" instead of "libncursesw5-dev". Also, on my ubuntu box, I had to install "ncurses-dev" too, but I am not sure if that was a me thing or a general thing.

In any case, thanks for the project! I look forward to using it!
